i AM LOOKING FOR ADVICE ABOUT WHAT THE NEWEST & GREATEST TING IS FOR THESE PATIENTS. ANYONE TRIED THE NEW PREVENZIA CRIZAL YET? IF I USE PREVENZIA, IT BLOCKS BLUE LIGHT, SHOULD I STILL DO A TINT?

You can also take a regular lens and put a blue-blocker tint on it.

Yeah, that is the direction I will probably go. I have some of 550 tint, was just looking for something new & not so ugly!!!! Thaks

I use the blue-blocker from BPI. Just make dure it is fresh and check it through a spectograph for proper blocking and range.

We actually make a Blue-Blocker that can be tinted over into amber / brown / and dark green without changing the blue blocking effect.

Me thinks you're not in the industry if you knew what retinitis pigmentosa is and does you'd know that anyone who has the disease would wear anything if there was a chance to reduce the progression of the disease
